This dish is so amazing, and everyone that has had it had me send this link while still at the table. So…brava. My local store has a Harissa mix in the bulk spice section, so maybe people want to see about that where they shop. It was a mite less tasty than yours but it did save a step in a pinch.”

Hi Carol, thanks so much for your weekly emails, i love looking through them each sunday. What is the dish in the last picture, just above food for thought? I can’t figure out if there’s a link to it. It looks so good. Have a great week!

Hi, Elena, So nice to hear from you! That’s my Lasagna with Pesto, Green Beans and Potatoes. I should have been more specific but I just grabbed a photo for something that would freeze well. We had this dish for the first time in Rome about 13-14 years ago and I’ve loved it ever since! Here’s the link: https://www.fromachefskitchen.com/lasagna-pesto-green-beans-potatoes/ Thanks so much! I love hearing from my readers/subscribers!
